sharpy2k4 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 i was watching it on bbc 2, cheering the Giants on all the way, had to support the English man in the team! Was getting a bit tense near the end, especially when they called for a challenge cause that guy wasnt off the pitch!Amazing by Manning to stay on his feet and throw however far it was for Tyreme (i think?) to catch with his hand and head. Then that super lil' drive to the touchdown :D Tbh, half time show....didn't appeal to me, nor did any of the entertainment before, just gonna watch the adverts online tomorrrow hungover on a lazy day :D Woop, go Giants (i really support the Dolphins :p) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/617693-giants-win/page/4/#findComment-589185143 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+StevoFC MVC Posted February 4, 2008 MVC Share Posted February 4, 2008 Anyone who thought the game was boring must not be an actual football fan. that was one of the overall best games I think I have ever seen. To me, watching a good defense is much more impressive than anything an offense can do. The giants D just totally dominated that game and it was impressive to watch.

To me, watching a good defense is much more impressive than anything an offense can do. The giants D just totally dominated that game and it was impressive to watch. Oh please. Like I said, it was good, but there was a long stint of nothing exciting going on. It was fun to watch Brady get steamrolled (quite literally) by the Giants D, but that's just not as exciting as offensive playmakers such as Eli's sack evasion and 40 yard completion. Different strokes for different folks - doesn't make anyone less of a football fan than anyone else. -Spenser Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/617693-giants-win/page/4/#findComment-589185179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I'm not really big on the Giants, but I'm glad Strahan finally got his ring. I doubt we'll see him in pads again.

Have you ever watched arena football? It's good defense that makes plays like Eli's so exciting; they complement each other. And it takes a real fan to appreciate good defensive, and good defensive line play. Especially considering how many different personnel packages and configurations the Giants had throughout the game.

0x10 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Man, I'm not a huge football fan, but this game was really close and exciting at the end. I'm glad the Giants won because Eli hasn't won one yet; how many has Tom Brady won already?

No, no, and more no. Good D is fine, but you could have two really good offenses with mediocre D's go against each other, both making spectacular offensive plays, and I'd take that game over this one any day. In that case it still comes down to which D comes through at the very end, but the rest of the game would at least be way more exciting. -Spenser Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/617693-giants-win/page/4/#findComment-589185869 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyLarry Veteran Posted February 5, 2008 Veteran Share Posted February 5, 2008 Watching the parade and just saw this Nike commercial.

Great writing. That was clever :D I thought about Tiki the other day and how he was so critical of the Giants last year. He had a book come out after retiring, right? It's like he was getting all this attention for his book, like he was a great star, and I haven't seem him in months. It seemed like the "stardom" had gotten to his head. Not to take away from his achievements on the field, but he really bit himself in the butt.
